Every benefit your household may qualify for, in one free screen.
Benefits run across federal, state and local agencies that rarely share a front door, so families miss programs they were entitled to all along. BenefitScreen checks your household against 50+ programs at once, then shows you where to apply and what to bring, in plain English.
Three levels of government, three different agencies, one screen that checks them all.
A program you clearly qualify for at the federal level can still be run by your state, or decided at a county office down the road. Here is how the levels stack, and who actually decides each one.
Federal programs
SNAP food benefits, SSI, the Earned Income Tax Credit, Medicare. National rules set the floor, and your household size and income decide where you land.
State programs
Medicaid, CHIP, TANF cash assistance, LIHEAP energy help. The federal government funds them, but your state sets income limits and runs enrollment, so the same program looks different across state lines.
Local & county help
Section 8 housing vouchers, county general assistance, utility and rent relief. These are decided close to home, often with their own waitlists and paperwork.
One report, built around your household, income, and state.
Answer a short set of questions about your household size, income, age, and situation. Your Benefit Stack Report assembles every program you may qualify for, in order, with the numbers and next steps for each one.

Screening is free. The full report is $19.99 when you want the amounts, links, and documents for every match.
Every program, the amount, the documents, and exactly where to apply.
No more guessing which website to use or which form to bring. The report turns a scattered maze of agencies into one ordered checklist you can work through at your own pace.
Built to be straight with you about a confusing system.
We never tell you that you are approved. Eligibility is decided by each program's agency when you apply. We show you where you likely stand and how to find out for sure.
Every estimate points back to the official program rule and the office that runs it, so you can confirm it at the source in a single step.

Income limits, asset tests, and waitlists change often and vary by state and county. A tool that hands you a confident yes it cannot back is how people get their hopes up, or skip a program they actually qualify for. Where eligibility is uncertain, we show you the current rule and the office that decides, not a promise.
